History
Inseacon AS was established in 1987 as an independent marine and sub-sea engineering company. Since the start-up of the company Inseacon’s main customers have been from the oil and gas industry. We have worked with the majority of the operators in the Norwegian sector. Through the years, Inseacon has provided engineering services and personnel to a number of significant sub-sea development projects.
Inseacon Services was established as a sister company to Inseacon AS in 2003. This was done to distinguish between the consultancy business and the in-house engineering services.
